Bridging the Digital Divide: A Closer Look at Internet Usage & Gender Parity of 2023:

Did you know that globally, 70% of men use the Internet compared to 65% of women?

The latest stats show progress toward gender parity, with a rise in the global score from 0.90 in 2019 to 0.92 in 2023.

💻🌍 In the Asia-Pacific region, we've surpassed the 0.9 mark, showcasing significant strides in internet inclusion. Kudos to the Arab States for leading the charge, improving their score from 0.79 to 0.87.

Yet, challenges persist, particularly in Africa, where gender parity lags.

Let's champion connectivity for all and work towards closing the digital gender gap! 🌐🤝

Research claims FTTH reduces internet CO2 emissions by a third

Sustainability ranks among the top ten initiatives across multiple businesses as they strive to become more efficient, environmentally friendly, and invest in employees for improved retention. With the Information and Communications Technology sector being responsible for 3-4% of all global emissions, the Fiber-to-the-Home Council Global Alliance (FCGA) conducted a survey of the industry to understand the commitment of service providers and vendors to sustainability and Environmental, Social, and Governance ( ) or Corporate Social Responsibility ( ) strategies, where they are in terms of reaching their overall goals and milestones, and how these differ at the regional level.

The outcome illustrated interesting regional and cultural differences and highlighted regions that appear further behind.
